What printer do you use for that and are you happy about it?

At first you just "pretend" to the taxman. You only start pretending publicly when all the people who could confound you are dead.

That's wild. I wonder if it's good news for neobanks like Mercury and Brex who will see an influx of new customers, or on the contrary, startups will seek old, boring, safe banks instead of niche boutiques with lots of exposure to

100%. European markets are known to pay out more dividends whereas the US market is known to prioritize stock price growth. Return-wise that makes no theoretical difference.

It’s a 160% INCREASE, not a 60% one (you misread as +60%). But even +60% year over year would be no joke. Your comment assumes it’ll stay constant but if the trend holds the required investment in security could become sizable. Not that I e

That’s an interesting point re/ yearly but on march 2020 yearly inflation dropped to 0% so I assume at the start of the pandemic many prices were down, not up

Is it not rather that the inflation of the past 6-12 months has taken everyone by surprise, including employers, and the wages haven’t had time to adapt yet? What we don’t see in the article’s graph is that inflation used to be somewhat con

I hear your argument but would you apply the same to alcohol and cigarettes? Let parents make sure their kids get none of it until they’re of age? I think it cannot work that way and it’s OK for society as a whole to help with the parenting

It's at least directional. In the other direction, a household is typically more than one income, whereas $175k is a per employee figure.

Wait, what activity / health tracking does the Fenix have over the AW? EKG is a big plus of the AW in that regard. Battery life isnt great, but do you exercise for more than 24h at a time? Genuinely asking, trying to decide for myself

What I'm left wondering is: what is the payoff for these scams? These aren't easy to scale, as you need to be manually writing plausible looking, personalized emails, waiting for someone to take the bait, "nurture" them

Am I misunderstanding something? Once in recycle mode you're supposed to send them back so that Sonos can actually recycle (or even reuse, nothing stops them from refurbishing) the old device. Recycle mode seems to simply be a convenie

Both the OP's article and yours have Zucman and Saez as a primary source for the data, so I doubt they'd contradict each other. It's 2 different arguments, one about the legal tax rate and one about the effective tax rate. In

The worst thing about this is that realizing it isn't necessarily the first step to improving your condition. On the contrary, it can lead to cultivating your own anxiety, because it gives you opportunities you wouldn't get with a

OK understood, thanks a lot. In short, is it fair to say that the OP overlooked the difference between Wholesalers and Sellers, made it look like Amazon was mainly doing business with Wholesalers, whereas the nuance is actually important an

wouldn't the article suggest exactly the opposite of what you're saying? as in, since they control all branches, the crisis has started to improve?

Awesome! This is by the maker of Pixel Dungeon[1], the best rogue-like on Android. Anyone who's played it can testify that (s)he knows all there is to know about procedurally generated maps. [1] http://pixeldungeon.watabou.r

I think a big difference here is that bucketeers knew they weren't actually buying the securities, and just waging against one another. The scheme in the article is like a combination of a bucket shop and a concealed ponzi scheme
